A blanket extension of opening hours for Edinburgh's pubs will not be introduced for the coronation of King Charles III this summer, the council has confirmed.
The decision means licensed premises will have to apply individually if they want to stay open later during the coronation bank holiday weekend from May 6-8.
Edinburgh licensing board convener Councillor Louise Young said the council would be "very open" to receiving applications which would be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.
